Chapter 21 Miles

Today was not going well. Hearing my former fated mate had disobeyed what she had been. ordered by going to another pack for an interview infuriates me. Her brother needs to get her under better control. Well, both her brother and her father. But, this is what happens when a she- wolf is allowed too much freedom, too much access to education. She learns too much. She thinks she is above all others. Well, not in my pack she wasn’t, nor would she ever be.

I would not permit her to work for another Alpha. That girl would forever belong to this pack. So she knew her place. I may have rejected her, but she was the mate the moon goddess had blessed me with, and I did not know if her going somewhere else would make me weaker. When she was away at university, I did not feel the same. I felt less strong. Though, at that time, I had not rejected her and my wolf pined for her, the pathetic f**ker.

He would whimper and whine for his mate. Beg for me to bring her home. Why he would want that pathetic excuse for a she-wolf I do not know. Even when she came home having undertaken. something of a makeover. Less of a wallflower, more of a show-stopper at first glance, but underneath it all she was still Bailey West. The pack geek that did nothing but irritate the f**k out of me.

But I had told nobody of our predicament. Why would I share that she was my mate? She was an embarrassment. Forever a laughing-stock of our pack. So I had nobody to gain advice from. And all the books I had scanned through within the pack library had not brought me the answers I needed about whether her presence or lack of it, within the pack, rejected or not would make me weaker. I was going to be the next Alpha. I could not risk being weak. I needed to be the strongest I could be. Or I would be the laughing-stock of the region. Of all the other Alphas.

So, I told her she must stay here. Because with nobody to turn to for advice to learn if her being absent would make me weaker, I had no other option. When my brother discovered the truth, I hoped he might provide some enlightenment, but he was as much use as a chocolate teapot. And spent more time laughing at the mess I was in. He knew as little as me. So I was no better off. So, as much as I despise the st*pid b*tch, she had to stay. I could make her suffer. Make her feel the pain as I found conquests to enjoy…

While she slowly went crazy through rejection and her lack of purpose with no role within our pack and no potential for a job outside of the pack. I would make her suffer for ever thinking she was better than me.
